Refeeding improves blood glucose and gastric emptying responses to a mixed-nutrient meal in anorexia nervosa
Gastric emptying (GE) is an important determinant of postprandial blood glucose (BG), yet GE is delayed in anorexia nervosa (AN). This study aimed to characterise relationships between GE (13C-octanoate breath test), and BG responses to, a mixed-nutrient semi-solid meal in 22 female adolescent AN inpatients on admission (BL) and following 1 (W1) and 2 weeks (W2) of refeeding, and in 17 age-matc...
متن کاملDeterminants of delayed gastric emptying in anorexia
Gastric emptying was measured using a gamma camera in 22 patients with anorexia nervosa, in 10 patients of normal or high weight with bulimia nervosa and in 10 controls. Patients with anorexia nervosa were tested (1) while underweight and selecting their own diet (10 patients); (2) underweight, but receiving an adequate diet on an inpatient unit (refeeding diet) (12 patients); and (3) under ref...
متن کاملAcute gastric dilatation in anorexia nervosa.
Two patients with anorexia nervosa were treated on a general surgical unit for acute gastric dilatation. In both cases the dilatation rapidly followed an increase in the usual low dietary intake of the patients, and the ingestion of extra food may have initiated the acute episode. Conservative treatment with parenteral fluids, nasogastric intubation, and then a gradual return to a normal diet p...
متن کاملErythromycin effects on gastric emptying, antral motility and plasma motilin and pancreatic polypeptide concentrations in anorexia nervosa.
In primary anorexia nervosa, gastric motility is often impaired and ensuing symptoms further discourage eating. Prokinetic agents have been shown to accelerate gastric emptying in affected patients. This study investigated whether emptying of a radiolabelled semisolid 1168 kJ meal and antral contractility were enhanced by intravenous erythromycin. Eight women and two men with anorexia nervosa (...
متن کاملAnorexia Nervosa The Neurobiology of Anorexia Nervosa
This article provides an overview of research findings on the neurobiology of anorexia nervosa (AN). including studies of monoamine neurotransmitter function, genetics, brain imaging, and neuropsychology. Such studies are designed to reveal the underlying neuroanatomical and pathophysiological bases of this potentially lethal condition. Notwithstanding commonly held misconceptions, there is no ...
